The Halo Hartume station has 310 drying beds and covers 4.5 hectares. It employs nearly 100 people. Between the Beriti and Shasemene mountains, the station collects cherries from around 450 outgrowers, all from the Halo Hartume kebele. The area under cultivation varies from 1.5 to 12 hectares.
The station's priority? To stay close to the farmers and improve the quality of the coffees from year to year. The farmers linked to the Halo Hartume station receive training every year, and maintain close links with RAD, the exporter we work with and owner of the Halo Hartume station.
